let us dip into

let us take
a dip, soak

an arm around a

an arm around a
lover’s waist can read
many things –
a stanza steeped
in equal parts
love and
loneliness,
an absent
horizon waiting
to be sparked,
a compendium of
partialities
wrapped
in our history,
a ship of words
drifting between
fiction and truth

be guilty –

be guilty
we have all
raised our go-to
verses like gold,
toasting to good
fellowship and
words that never
come undone

you can tell as early

you can tell as early
as eighteen months

the ones who will
develop that
Byronic ilk.
caught near
the beginning –
as luck would
have it – there
will be plenty
of opportunities
to polish that
mysterious past
for festering grief
